Judges normally have enough experience to determine from the facts if a defendent is guilty or not of Sexual Harassment.
However, sometimes in civil actions or criminal prosecutions, the offence seems to have taken place a long time ago, when either or both parties were perhaps very young, but after which no "official complaint" was made at the time !
When old forgotten "offences" are suddenly evoked and accusations are made, the question then should be "why ?". Has a former offender recommenced, or is it out of spite, because he or she is now a well known "Personality" ?
If it is "out of spite", Judges have the experience to acquit a defendent. BUT, the "fame" of the well known personality could be stigmatized for ever !
How can such malicious and spiteful accusations be prevented ?
